Abstract

The article exhibits the Postmodern consciousness and changes that are still taking place within the Western societies. The last four–five years had brought new challenges to the political system and these had been surprisingly supported by the significant portions of population, the event deemed impossible only six–seven years ago. The slightly similar in its surprising success change was the accent of Neoliberalism, the theory of which, previously had been perceived only as a theory but suddenly there was “No Alternative” as was famously put by Margaret Thatcher, the “Iron Lady”. This event, came as a surprise as, for instance, not many expected the success of Neoliberalism due to the public outcry. However, the outcry had not been wild at all. In contemporary time, however, the change is coming from the substantial part of the populace which was indeed surprising. The article, therefore, aims to bring to the fore the Postmodern consciousness that might have played a decisive role in the social and political turbulence of last years and is correlated to the rise of the right and the rise of populism. The article also sheds light on the scientific discourse within Political Sociology on Postmodern trends in the Western societies.
